PDGA PLAYERS LIST

Get signed up soon.

We only plan on using the Tutle Creek Course. That limits the field size to 90, maybe a few more if we do a ghost card.

BYOP Doubles on Friday
Kan-Jam on Friday
Beer Frizz after the tourney on Saturday

Come to Manhattan and stay the weekend. Camping is available a putter shot from the course.

See you this weekend.

Coming from Atchison, still have my eye on the weather. Might not enter a age protected class my ratings are low enough for the Rec. group. Would like to see the precip. chances drop a little.

Looking like Sunday is going to turn into a travel/recovery day. Our lack of early planning is the main cause. I know I plan on adding the two other manhattan courses to my have played list.

Doubles Friday followed by hanging out and camping
Tourney Saturday followed by hanging out and camping
Recovering on Sunday while hanging out and playing

Here is a little camping information. For those of you interested.

Looks like the daily vehicle fee is $4.20
Daily Camping fee $8.50 (tent) there may be an extra person fee, I don't know.

Something to consider is that vehicle permit fees expire at 2 PM the next day, so if you're coming in on Friday to practice, play doubles or camp, you'll probably need to pay for two days. That and if you can carpool with somebody who has an annual permit, there is no vehicle fee.

There should a gate or park attendant there on Saturday, and possibly Friday evening to answer any questions about camping options.

What time does the Friday stuff happen?

[smitty]

I would think the rv will be rolling in between 3 and 4. We normally run doubles from 3-6.

I am being forced to work until 3 or I would be there early also.

[kewley]

Thanks, I might slip out there after work.

[CHAS.]

I posted earlier that I wanted to make this one, but a root canal and heavy antibiotics I not making this one.

[PETRIE]

CHAS.,

I feel your pain. I know all too well what you are going through because I've had a few of those myself.

Good news is after they get that nerve dug out, the chances of that tooth ever causing you pain again is almost nil.

[PETRIE]

I'll probably be up there at Tuttle Puddle for a while Friday afternoon/night getting in some last minute practice.

I'm looking forward to seeing the some guys that I haven't seen in a while. Yeah, you Smitty & mrsenortyler!

So, if the DD RV is there does that mean someone will be peddling plastic too? Would be nice to get some shopping done the night before instead of on tourney day. Not a big deal if not, just curious.

The weather for tomorrow looks great in Manhattan. A little rain early in the morning but a high of 81 tomorrow. See everyone there!

I imagine they'll have the full spread. This year I handed over the whole tournament to DD, so it should be better for all involved, and run much smoother and quicker too!

Smitty and I are heading out in an hour or so, see you there!

[jnotty]

Had an awesome time yesterday! Played with some great folks, beautiful weather!
Great shooting Tulips!
Btw, Warner park is pretty bad ass. Great job Manhattan!

And if anybody grabbed my chair at the end, please hold on to it and I'll grab it at a future tourney.
Thanks DD,

Joe Hesting
